Google Compute Engine supports preemptible VM instances, which could allow for very inexpensive ephemeral clusters.

Much of the work here has been added to the preemptible_rollup branch. Documentation is available at:

http://googlegenomics.readthedocs.org/en/latest/use_cases/setup_gridengine_cluster_on_compute_engine/preemptible_vms.html

Next step is to set up pull requests for the master fork.
